In days long past, young people chose to undertake a long journey of learning opportunities in order to master a trade and earn more privileges. They would travel places, meet people, let themselves be taught by guild members – all to develop and refine their skills and become accomplished tradesmen or craftsmen such as textile workers, stone cutters, glass workers, carpenters, carvers, metal workers, armourers, shoemakers etc. Supervised experience, proven skills and years of apprenticeship later, they would become a journeyman – a qualified tradesman ready to develop into a master.
